• Designed construction packages for a multitude of projects ranging from header replacements to measurement and control system installation for natural gas pipeline and plant operators in California
• Collaborated with electrical, civil, and mechanical professional engineers to produce construction drawings, contracts, and calculations in accordance with the code of federal regulations and cogent engineering.
• Specifyied critical instrumentation and control equipment for various high impact areas ranging from high pressure transmission lines to local district distribution systems
• Produced 30+ construction packages for the installation of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems in support of PG&E’s effort to monitor pressure and flow through gas pressure regulator stations.
• Analyzed and calculated the flow capacity, pressure loss, thrust forces, and material stresses in pipelines and station process piping
• Communicated progress and schedule to a variety of clients that GTS served – from small gas storage facilities to statewide regulated utilities

• Produced a working prototype vibration sensor by utilizing a newly patented concept for vibration detection in energy generation systems
• Determined the viability of antenna input impedance for the detection of ultra-low-frequency vibration by developing and analyzing a model for a novel electromechanical system
• Created a wealth of analytical and experimental data for future product development
